Human-cantered urbanism emphasizes accessibility to socialization, cultural fulfilment, and health within short commutes, prioritizing how quickly people can reach urban spaces. This approach is gaining traction in sustainable urban development.

In response to climate urgencies like those highlighted at COP28, net zero cities those generating as much energy as they consume are gaining attention. Achieving these requires a paradigm shift in urban planning and architecture.

Beyond individual buildings, realizing net zero cities demands a holistic urban planning approach, viewing the entire city as an interconnected system and designing infrastructure supporting a net zero lifestyle. This includes initiatives like community gardens and waste management systems to reduce landfill waste.

Crucially, achieving net zero cities involves models contributing to deep decarbonization agendas while remaining contextually responsive and financially viable, involving both public and private stakeholders.
